Focusing Exclusively on You

	       A kind heart, a caring hand
                  a cheerful face, never out of place

               An ear to listen, a shoulder to lean on
                   A novel idea to think about too 

               O, I’ve spent decades ‘changing the world’
                    Yet finding that mission ultimately absurd

                So, here I am, focusing my efforts exclusively on you

Sometimes the world may be a little big to attempt to change. One step at a time. Change one person who will then change one person too. In not too long the world will be changed.
